Abstract: Fat-suppressed MRI sequences showed promise in differentiating aggressive from typical asymptomatic vertebral hemangiomas (100% accuracy in this study). Methods: MRI and CT scans of aggressive (n=8) patients and typical hemangiomas (n=11) were analyzed. Signal intensity on fat-suppressed MRI sequences was compared between groups. Results: Aggressive hemangiomas showed significantly higher signal intensity on fat-suppressed MRI than normal bone and typical hemangiomas. A threshold value achieved 100% accuracy in differentiating the two groups. Conclusion: Fat-suppressed MRI may be a valuable tool for identifying aggressive vertebral hemangiomas, but larger studies are needed for confirmation.
